Although the transients goal is to become a stripper. Eventually the transient finds out about the kidnapping. The transient tries convincing the kidnapper to call the authorities. It ends with the kidnap woman calling 911 on herself and disappearing.

Extremely Slow with missing pieces
lacymandy10 August 2022
I am not one to usually leave any negative reviews BUT, this movie was probably the slowest I have seen in a really long time. I understand what they are trying to do here, but there was no explanation of how she kidnapped the boy, nothing about anyone searching for the boy and they were in there car traveling through the whole movie. I could not even finish it. I apologize but just too slow for me. I AM sincerely sorry for the the loss of the directors daughter. This movie just was not for me.

Incredibly slow and boring
andreaclive10 December 2019
Very unclear, confusing, and weird characters. This woman who kidnapped the child seems to have lots of money yet doesn't work. Movie tells nothing about her past or how she managed to find and kidnap the child. Total waste of time.

Overdressed Older Woman walking in platform shoes and that's about it
srobertson-751031 June 2020
Basically this movie is about an older woman walking around platform shoes and driving a kid in her car. This may hold the record for the most pointless movie ever made. Dumb dumb dumb If you decide to watch it keep your fast forward button handy - you will not miss a thing

A beautiful symphonic descent into madness
miraclejoy52418 December 2019
This movie has left me shaken in such a way... It is a slow burn, sure, but I certainly wouldn't call it boring. There was only one time I found a scene to be too long/drawn out... The scenery... the soundtrack.... the heartbreak.. my Lord... I loved it one minute, never wanting it to end..and the next I'm so filled with anxiety as I'm reminded of what's really going on and realizing there will likely be no happy ending... Oh, and the baby fever! That beautiful child will give anyone baby fever, your heart just shreds for Sarah as you can understand how she snapped...
